    What keeps God from moving in worship? We do! We are in a free partnership with him in these things. He knocks, and we can open up or ignore him.

    This sermon was preached by Scotty L Killingsworth at Evergreen Church on Sunday morning November 3, 2002. Moving Worship Psalms 23 God is on the move. He is dynamic not static. God who is one day old and ancient of days is and will always be on the move. He never goes on vacation, sleeps or ...read more

    On its face - at the start of it - it seemed unlikely this new venture (the church) cold possibly suceed.

    AGAINST ALL ODDS: THE CHURCH ACROSS THE AGES TEXT: Daniel 7:9-14 Introduction: 1. If any new venture ever seemed to be striking out against all odds it was the early Church of Christ started on that fateful day of Pentecost in AD. 30 2. How in the world did it survive? 3.

     | 7,030 views

    I know of no better place to go for such a discussion than the song How Great Thou Art. Many Songs of worship and praise have been penned, but I know of none more renowned and beloved that this beautiful song.

    HOW GREAT THOU ART TEXT: Psalm 8; John 4:23-24 INTRODCUTION: 1 Our topic today is titled, How Great Thou Art. 2 Last week we answered the question, “What is Worship. It is only logical to follow up such a subject with a discussion of the God we worship. 3 I know of no better place to go for such a ...read more

    This is about undistracted worship.

    Do you remember “Let’s Make A Deal” with Monty Hall? People would dress up in goofy costumes and carry signs to get his attention so he would come to them to make a deal. They would barter and trade. Unknowingly contestants would trade away a new car for 5 baby pigs. Or, they would trade away ...read more

    based on 138 ratings
     | 13,139 views

    This is about authentic worship.

    As I mentioned last week, worship is a broad term. It is often misunderstood. I want to come back to Rick Warren’s definition given in his book, The Purpose Driven Life, “Anything you do that brings pleasure to God is an act of worship.” That’s a boiled down definition of worship. What happens ...read more

    This answers the question about worship and change.

    We don’t do well at predicting the future. In 1962 Decca Recording Co said the Beatles would never make it. Gary Cooper once said, “I’m just glad that it’ll be Clark Gable who’s falling on his face and not Gary Cooper.” What was he talking about? Gone with the Wind. In 1899, the director of ...read more

    based on 38 ratings
     | 4,412 views

    This is about getting priorities straight.

    Worship is bringing pleasure to God. One way we bring pleasure to God is by doing his will for us, and his church. We have two big problems though. The first is that we may think we are inferior, and the second is that we have our own ideas about what is best. I. We are not INFERIOR. When I was ...read more

    Especially Series

    based on 65 ratings
     | 4,861 views

    Three times the word "especially" appears in the New Testament, prompting us to be intentional in fellowship, to emphasize family life, and never to forget the centrality of the message of the Cross.

    Dealing with people is always messy. There is no way you can work with human beings and have everything neat and clean. When you deal with people, you get a mess. They misunderstand, they misinterpret, they make mistakes, they get it wrong. And that’s just on Sundays! The rest of the week is ...read more

    Avoiding Spiritual Amnesia Series

    based on 64 ratings
     | 8,920 views

    Knowing the Bible helps us remember how to navigate through life issues, how to interpret what is happening in our lives, and how to find hope in bleak times.

    At the very end of the longest chapter of the Bible, 176 verses about God’s word, comes this stout declaration, “I do not forget your commandments.” “I do not forget your commandments.” That is a tall order, to promise that you will not forget. How can you promise that you will not forget? ...read more

    based on 36 ratings
     | 4,108 views

    The real truth about worship is that it is a way of life.

    WORSHIP: A WAY OF LIFE OR AN EXPERIENCE? PSALM 95 A few years ago there were TV ads as well as radio & billboard ads telling us GO TO WORSHIP; YOU=LL BE RICHER FOR IT. This is a great public service announcement. We should worship because we will be richer for it. But there is only one thing ...read more
